	When I look around, I do not like what I see.&#160; My perception is that nothing is working the way it should be, and strong measures are long overdue if the malaise is to change.&#160; People seem to be living on entertainment and social media while waiting for things to improve.&#160; Hope and euphoria [...]]]></description>

Incandescent light bulbs of 40 watts and above are being phased out using government incentives and edicts to force energy savings and likely will reduce the number of nuclear plants that will need to be built.&#160; The [...]]]></description>
